If you set the following does it fix the problem?

Hey Dan
What exactly would that do?
EJ
It would then allow httpd to write to the file.
httpd is allowed to write to httpd_squirrelmail_t files not to
usr_t files.
So in case one day I decide to get rid of squirrelmail, how do I undo
this?
You don't need to. If you get rid of squirrelmail (by removing the
package), you'll have got rid of everything affected by this change.
Changing the context of files is similar to changing their permissions;
removing a file will remove any trace of changes you made to its
permissions/context.

Let's say I keep Squirrelmail but I don't want to use the
functionality of writing to that config file with apache. How do I
undo this? I just wanna give it a try and I'll probably want to
revert the changes I made for SElinux.
So what would be the opposite of chcon -t httpd_squirrelmail_t /usr/
share/squirrelmail/config/config/ php to undo the changes it makes?
Thanks
EJ
You could use chcon to set it back to usr_t.
chcon -t usr_t ...
Or you could use restorecon which sets files back to the system default
restorecon /usr/share/...
